Re: Jesus is God
The apostle Paul has done us a great service by allowing God, the Father, to use him to be a channel of His word, so that we may have just a little glimpse of His Majesty and His Glory and a better understanding of our Great Lord, God and Savior Jesus, the Messiah, so that we may more perfectly love...

Re: Jesus is God
Mark 10:17-18 " ...Good teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? And Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone.' " We have looked at this before but it bears repeating. Jesus is either saying a. that He is NOT GOOD or b. that He IS GOD (and ALSO GOOD). I t...

Re: Jesus is God
Luke 16:13 "No servant can serve two masters ... you cannot serve God and wealth." The primary teaching of Jesus here is obvious: Some were calling God their master and yet Jesus was pointing out that, in reality, money was their master. Jesus said basically, "You can't have two masters - you will h...

Re: Jesus is God
Jesus dwells in unapproachable light right now, so no man (on earth) has seen that or can see that, because the light is blinding. The saw Him on earth, but without the unapproachable light.

Re: Jesus is God
Dwight, This is a text book example of equivocation. No Unitarian advocates disdaining Jesus to only love and serve God the father. That's just not what they are saying, so your second statement is just false in the way you formulated it. You are very good at blurring the truth. The verse is not co...

Re: Jesus is God
1 Timothy 6:14-16 " ... until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which He (Jesus) will bring about at the proper time ..." So Paul is clearly saying that Jesus does know NOW when His 2nd coming will be, even though He didn't know that when He was on earth. But continuing the verses: " - He who...

Re: Jesus is God
"No servant can serve two masters ... you cannot serve God and wealth." Luke 16:13
Nor can you serve God and someone who is not God - that would be two masters.
But since Jesus is God, we only have One Master.

Re: Jesus is God
Dwight -That's exactly what I said is NOT clear. There was no need for the Father to reveal anything to Him through the Spirit. The Father was abiding IN HIM. "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own iniative, but the...

Re: Jesus is God
How is it possible that Jesus knows whats going on in heaven when a sinner repents? He didn't say, "Thus says the Lord", so it wasn't a prophetic word or a word of knowledge by the Holy Spirit. In fact, He never says "Thus says the Lord", because He IS the LORD. In verse 10, He says again: "Likewis...
